The Lion, the Binary Star and the Rocket Pilot

Ok, today's recommendation is an anime (and manga) that I watched a few years ago: Twin Spica (or Futatsu no Spica). At first the anime's drawing style may cause some rejection and the character of Asumi may seem like out of a children's show. But the story behind that and every other character of this series is deeply moving.
Asumi Kamogawa has dreamt about going to space ever since she was very little and decides to attend to an academy in Tokyo to become an astronaut. This sounds too simple for a plot, but anything else I might say will be an spoiler. Yeah. Just that sentence doesn't make it any justice. Please trust me on this one.
If you don't care about a little spoiler you can read the plot in MyAnimeList:
Anime - Manga
By the way, if you enjoy reading manga just skip the anime. I think it's much better.

So, I watched this movie today, Colorful, based on a novel. It's about the soul of a person who just died and is given a chance to live again in the body of a boy who just commited suicide, on the condition that he must remember which was the crime he commited in his past life (He can't remember anything about it). It's a great movie to watch by yourself, since it touches deep feelings and leaves you thinking.

Hello world. Violet muffins and chocolate sheeps' world. This is Linachann, short lass from the Southern Hemisphere. Wasting time on the Internet for as long as I can remember. Anime, manga, videogames, cat pictures, YouTube videos, reddit, you name it.

What is this blog about? Well... I guess it'll mostly be recommendations on the stuff I mentioned above and some random thoughts.

About today, 50th Anniversary of the Doctor Who series. I started watching this show at the begining of this year ( since the 9th doctor) and I'm really into it. It makes me laugh a lot and I love how at the end of some episodes one can't stop feeling amazed by the last revelation.
I won't be able to watch the special today since I haven't finished watching the last season and I don't have anyone to go to the cinema with (who understands anything about the series). So I'll go on about it once I catch up.

I think this is enough for tonight. By the way, English is not my native language so please don't be too harsh on me if my grammar makes no sense.
